Today was supposed to be Cats, and this is my 17-year-old longhaired calico boss when she was younger. She looks just the same now but isn't as spry.
he gave up ii?
what pretty girl
it was awful
3rd 8 :)
oooooh - & that's halfway! i am mediocre again!
wow melon - very impressive
4th 8 :D
chj, I'm sure you'd look lovely with dangly earrings - but they are a good choice according to today' real theme
tx, deb
what is today's real theme jilli, I thought it was golden feet
yes jili - chj had nice earrings - but the poo earrings are still my personal favorite
5th 8
golden toes, flosey, for kristin's lost baby at 36 days' gestation, was due today
oh dear, how sad
36 weeks
thanks was just about to ask
wow melon! you are on fire!
6th!
okay - now you're just being annoying!
looked at those pretty fee, flo, but I don't think they are Ceratosaurus Nasicornis! (and yes, 36 weeks, sorry)
*feet, with the daisy
I changed that too, is it not showing properly?
did you remember to hit Update Profile, flosey? I forget that a lot
hk! :P
LOL
it doent like teddie
thanks jilli, I must have missed hitting update!
repaired now
wonderful, flosey!

Thank you, MVA - she's beautiful in many ways - has never chased a bird...

she's very clever, chj
OK - i am stuck on the pe 8? laugh away hk, but i'll take a clue....
i agree
uh - 184 words & still only the 1 eight!
i havent even found my first 8 yet
so basically - no clue from me mel
pe8 is outerwear
me either holly
I've got LA 8/50.
thanks roc - oh-ho! got it! used to have one!
yippeeee - another 8 ! tx roc
lol sue - that's the one i have
i had one too melon!
Drat!
my wife will soon be la8-ing.. hopefully.
I'm still struggling with this outerwear. Is it an American word?
its a compound word sue
i think it's rather an international word - since it is used by people who travel all over
thanks roc for la. when due date?
she was due on monday
ahhh!
still waiting though
wow roc - well congrats!!! should be soon!
my daughter was 7 days late! but was fine
thx :D
think of a sailor
I've got that PE now, but I've never heard of it!
(Thanks for your help everybody, though!)
didn't the pe8 originate in the navy?
i believe so flosey
about to turn in - here are the clues for the 8s: •ac8 - synthetic fabric past tense, •ca8 50 #1 - hat with flairs? •ca 8 50 #2 - little cloaks •co8 - a shameless flirt, •la8 - made milk, •pe8 - swab's wrap, •st8 - kept aright.
all those question marks were bullets. - except ca8 50 #1 - hat with flairs? (kinda cryptic)
awfully nice of you melon :) tx
very clever melon... got the ca8!
tx, melon - do you mean flares?
nope.
thanks melon
great clue melon for the ca
thanks melon, was about to head to bed but will puzzle these out first
Thanks melon.
8's greyed out - wtg melon!!!!
co 8/60 is a flirty woman

this grid is giving me a little headache
what my kitty did is in the grid - ca6/24
calling it a night here - goig to finish watching 'walk the line' - the phoenix guy is usually creepy, but i think, so far, he's doing a great job, can totally see why he was nominated for an academy award
good nite everyone :)
but reese is a revelation, don't you think?
nite helen - happy evening
nite hk
bbl
morning babblers...Boo! was hoping for a quick grid today!
hi seano - missed your flying dino before -
he'll be flying off soon, what's the the to save me looking
whats the theme that should have been
it's golden toes, in honour of kristinc's baby lost at 36 weeks' gestation form a cord problem, due today
oh that is so sad
the theme that should have been is cats, hence mine for now
a sadness that so many people experience
Ok, off to bed for me, good night all
((((kristinc))))) Morning all.
howdy
My heart goes out to kristinc. Been there.
how many words today?
298, maddie!
Hey jilli! Still awake, I see :)
tippy tippy toes....298 words....
good morning everybody:)
Hi mab, hi jean
just barely, sprite!
OK, I'm not starting today's grid - I've no time to complte 298 words - but have fun guys!
I have to be fast today, have to be off in about half an hour and won't be back in till tonight. Probably will emulate your staying up late tonight! :)
i know what you mean matty, i am flying to the UK today...i have a million things to do....yet here i am!
mattygroves, wish I'd stuck to your theory. Should know better!
Not finishing isn't the end of the world, you know... :) We can play for the fun of it.
I'm not attempting this monster - Wednesday is always a busy one for me, with my library shift, and it always seems to be a huge grid. So I'll pop in now and then and go to bed at a reasonable hour (sort of)
Couldn't resist changing my icon (cats today, or toes. I've gone for cats. And dragons)
I very rarely finish sprite -I enjoy the words and the chat.
now say that like you mean it sprite.....yeah i can give up any time!!!
That's the spirit, JFB! I am so lucky the grid flips for me at 7 am, so I always have the entire day to play, theoretically. But if I can't finish tonight, I won't cry. Promise! ;)
seano, I swear, I did not play for almost a week and I didn't go cold turkey! Will try that again from Friday on, we'll leave for our holiday in Germany then.
The flip here is 6am. I'm either not up then or already at work.
Why golden toes, when the theme according to Angelsong is cats?
I believe it is in tribute to kristinc, who lost her baby prematurely.
click on my icon, matty, for the explanation
If you go to Lickety's page and Icon Themes on the right, you'll see the changed theme for today
Hello Everyone!!
Oh. Well, I'll be off in a minute anyway...
Ha mrP! *hug*
hi mrp!
how is everyone today?? *hugs back* and is this grid approachable?
Approachable, but not finishable for me anyway.
Very approachable, mrP, words are coming fast as they can. But it is pretty big today!
yeah! nearly 300 is big!! I will give it a go though!
since when is edit not a word?
It is a word, it's just not in the grid today.
298? I don't think so! I think I'll put up the new curtains I bought at the weekend, and tackle a few other jobs I have ignored while babbling
I don't....start...can't...start...... ..
LOL!
be strong matty
yeah, right, matty
Good morning campers!
KEEP STRONG - SHOW YOU HAVE MORE WILL POWER THAN ME!
hello souleh
I have to be off, back at the end of the day. Hi there, souleh. And bye all, happy hunting and have fun!
morning to all that have come in whilst had my head in the grid
Sorry - didn't mean to shout.
hi jean
bye sprite
It was a strong message, JFB!
Hi Jillibus & mrpresident
bye sprite - I'm off soon
Did it work?
Sure you will, jillibus. Sure you will ;)
No, really, this time *poof*
Good luck tearing yourself away and sleep well! I am *poof* now.
dose
oops!
With a measly 224 to go I must go too. Have a happy babbling day/night everyone.
is anyone elses babble playing up?
Evening all. How many words? 298. WOW!
Hi all
Hi Dianne
How is everyone doing?
I've only just started
nest
Oops
Morning all! Hows the grid today?
Hi spanner. Seems a lot of words, and everyone is very quiet!
Best get my head down to it then!!
Hello everyone
Hi Preethi
Hi Angb. How many words in the grid today?
Do you really want to know? 298
thats a lot! Im still at 53 :( long way to go!
I've got to 73. But I've been here a while. I've decided to avoid the list, otherwise I stay till I get them all out. And it's the end of our day here!
yeah true. I havent see the list either
where are you from Angb?
New Zealand. And you?
India
its 2:30 pm here and im at work. Babbling whenever i find time
Wow, Babble truly gets around. I have quite a few students who have come to NZ to study from India.
It's 9.07pm here.
cool. Are you a professor?
Wow, the kids should be in bed ... Sort of. I teach in a polytechnic and we don't have professors, and I don't think I am that clever anyway. LOL
I lecture in business, marketing and advertising.
awesome. Im in the online advertising business
Mornin' All...hhhmmmmmm this looks interesting.
Hi Odin
Fantastic. I know a little about that, but probably not enough. Hi Odin. 298 words today!!!!
Hey. What's the theme today?
Something about golden toes. Didn't get it at all! LOL
The combo's are incredible. Golden toes...I don't think I get it either.
Neither did I before i took up this job. But it is interesting stuff.
Do you place advertising on other people's sites or something?
Odin. What combo's were you talking about?
are you familiar with the advertising pgm that Google offers? Its called AdWords. So i work in that. We place ads on Google.
ed's double t's
I have some of those Odin, but probably not all of them yet (as usual) LOL
Preethi, I have seen those ads that Google put everywhere that seem to change with the "context". Sorry I'm a media planner by trade. Is that what you mean?
I'm diggin' this way more than yesterdays.
I'm finding this harder today. I keep on seeing Odin now LOL
Yeah. you are right. So the ads that you see on Google.com are selected based on what the user is looking for. I work with the AdWords department in Google which handles the ads that advertisers submit.
Great, must be interesting. Wonder what they'll come up with next?
I saw it right away...what do they call them? Phantom words or something?
Yep, phantom words I think. I am new here and still picking up the lingo. Love to know what babblets are.
yup. it is very interesting
Yeah, what the *h* does that mean? I am new also and I am barley figuring out the jargon.
im at 63. this grid seems tougher than i thought it was
I agree Preethi. Am at 85, and at a complete standstill.
I holding my own..
hi all!
Hi folks. I'm at 73. Tough one today.
Hi Fran
Hi Hydra
Mornin' Hydra
Hi hydra. And Fran.
Hiya, Odin. Love your icon. Bout time I changed mine. Hi, Angb and Fran.
Oh, and Preethi too!
I'm still seeing the dino...
just got home from a meeting to find a monster grid!!
:) true Fran. Im stuck at 66!
Lots of ed endings which helps, Fran. But I am studk in the 80s
well, just wanted to say hello, going to work without the chat for a while. BTW, a babblet is just a word that appears in the grids a lot and not neccessarily part of common conversation, for instance etna.
Cheers thnx for that Fran. Good babbling
Thanks Fran!
see you all in a few!!
Immediately dashed to grid to see if it was there today. But we are etna-less.
Good luck Fran
Make no mistake I checked too
Hmm, you too?
At least we know what it means now...learning a little each day
95 now. Creeping up!
And the words you learn!
Not sure I'll use a lot of them though
If I could only remember them all
awesome Hydra. Im stuck at 73
100 now. I'm amazing myself.
Well don hydra. Bum up for me I think
LOL
I BELIVE THERE WILL BE PLENTY OF BUMS UP TODAY!
Think it's time for an la5/10. (Think coffee...)
I'm with you ...
That'll keep you sa 4/4
;]
Hi everyone, I was hoping for a small grid today, no such luck. What's the theme today?
Mornin' Pap. Big one today
Golden toes??
Hi Pap.
I'm slowing down at 72
I'm on 109 and have to go again. I didn't intend to come back again but just sort of found myself here!
Wow. I'm on 107. Catching you up.
Don't we all J!
It's gold toes day. Waiting for someone to explain this!
gold toes? I'll stick with my gator until I see what that means
This Babbling eats into your time.
Specially if you work from home like me.
I forgot to put the kids to bed tonite LOL
Bad mum!
If I worked from home it would be over for me...too addictive
A babbling mum!!!!
I Babble till I score 1000 then resolutely log out and get working. But it's already 10.40 and I've done nothing but Babble!
Phanton word: teddies
You must have 100o by now hydra ... where's your won't power? LOL It is addictive. I had to restrict myself to not taking this list ... otherwise I would stay until I got all the words out. 1am or 2 am in the morning!
No, I'm at 970 Angb. Haven't consulted lists yet. That's my treat for later! Have to work on my astrology column today. It takes an age to do.
I have a couple of meeting to attend. will catch up with you guys in a lil bit. Have fun babbling!
morning all :) ...the 30 minute challenge takes on a new meaning with a big grid like this...
See ya Preethi
Mornin' Sherb!
Sherb - my congrats on your massive puzzler stars
Beautiful toes, sherb.
I assumed it was you ... ooops hope I'm right.
Reached 100 at last. Back later. Bye all.
thanks Angb!! :) ...it's becoming a bit of an obsession...
Bye Hydra
See ya hydra
How many obsessions are you allowed sherb? QP, Babble, any others?
thanks hydra :) ...don't know what gold toes are in aid of, but no doubt someone will come along and enlighten us...
don't forget sudoku, Ang... then there's chocolate, margaritas......... better stop there...
LOL sherb.
ah, passed the 100 mark, can only babble for 5 more minutes, see you all tonight
sherb, I love sudoku too, i have books all over the house
See u PappouTed
I find sudoku very therapeutic, except for the Times fiendish puzzles, which have me tearing my hair out... later PappouTed :)
Gold Toes is for Krista who lost the baby she was expecting some time ago, but today was the day it should have been born
Omg. That is really sad
Sorry wrong K, it was KristinC
there's a message thread at Babbler's Anon...
I got one of the 8 letters. omg.
clue?
Have you the 7/32?
well done Ang!! ...this is a tough one... 23 O's among other things...
no
i have 7/44
I've a got a 7/32... but don't know if it's the right one... pa...
Sorry odin, Ok - I think the 7 is what nail polish remover is made of - then add a consonent for the 8
No, i'm no chemist, it's what you cover books with I think.
Back under my rock! No good at clues.
does it start ac?
No worries...I must be slow this morning
Yes ... Oh, it's used in clothes and cigarette filters!
TY!
Sorry I'm not using the list. It is a ac 7/32 - which leads to the ac 8/50
Got them both Thanx again...
Finally, 100 words!
Almost there
i'm back! got up to hundred thirty-four
Great Fran ;]
You're magic, Fran
I haven't even got a grey box today! LOL
pretty slow going now though!
morning Fran :) ...bit of a monster today...
hi sherb! good job on word builder yesterday!!
thanks Fran!! :) ...I'm beginning to realise it's not all about getting the longest words...
Morning Babblers
soid
yes sherb, it's about placing a good word on the right tiles.
hi becca
Oops, sorry!
hi Fran, how's the grid for you today?
slow going becca
Broke 100...off to work & return later. Hope everyone enjoys their day or night.

Babble's having it's usual mid morning burp...
later Odin :)
Yeah, I think it's havign anap
See you Odin
finally got the ac7/8 :) ...was looking for the wrong ending...
I've got 100! Break time now (which means I do some work for a while before coming back to Babble!)
Well done sherb and Becca
Well that's me for the night. Think I'll get my hottie, and go to bed with a book. See you anon.
night angb!!
nite Ang... see you tomorrow :)
Might find some more words. Reading a book set in Victorian times, and the vocab would just suit Babble!
it won't hurt ang!
going to be now, see you all later!
later FranMag :)
that was...going to bed now! i guess i am tired.
night sherb!
nite, fran!
morning Une :)
hey, sherb
Hi all! Got to 100 without too much trouble, it's hard going now though...
hi amanda :) ...this grid is gonna make me go po6...!!
ooo thanks Sherb - didn't have that, and had forgotten about that p down there in the corner
:)
grinding to a halt... maybe lunch will help... later all :)
I have no i4 what all of those i-words should be....
some are very chemically
hello
I've got one chemical one - or one of Zeus' rendevouz
there's at least 3, all very similar (I'm missing 1 i so that might be too)
is qu used today, sorry to interupt
Yes, twice. a 4
and a 5. Oops!
hmmm ta
I found a 7 that contains a q (not at beginning0
Greetings, everyone!
the 5 has me stumped
and I just monkey typed both of them
for the qu 5 add past tene of eat
good morning Jera
Think of a posh English person saying 'quite'
quate
good morning all
sorry, wrong spot
that would be the word, mom :)
ta jera and hello, i wasn't sure if the qu was tile filler or if there are qu contanting words that are going to irritate me
Morning, Mom... how are you today?
Morning, ch1212
very good, and you?
got it ta
ok, I've got 2 of the chemical i's...the one that ends in rendevouz and the one that ends in (sounds like) passed away
equates
Hi Jera, ch, lady
Tired! Didn't get to finish yesterday due to GS meeting
opps hey cath
Ch1212 I know, dummy me, I forgot to move the cursor back to the puzzle after saying good morning.
thanks herinfernally
Ah! found the third chemical one - it's a verb
we all do that, mom :)
odetta
opss sorry about the typo in here just then, hopefully thats the only mistake i make
If that's the worst thing you do today, you're doing good...
im being good, too tired tonight just barelying thinking and its 940pm here
What's the icon theme today? I'm still in my quoll costume... should change...
"Gold Toes" is the icon theme, whatever that means
It's a brand of socks, of course...
Sounds frightening...
Never heard of them, LOL
jera theres the web site for youhttp://www.goldtoe.com/
there are 4 chemical i's amanda, just found the 4th one!
as soon as you said gold toe i thought 'goldfinger'
wanna clue me in on that one Ata?
Are they scraping the bottom of the barrel for themes??
*thinks* 3 are exactly the same first 5 letters. 1 5 and 2 6's. the other is the sounding like dead one
The theme apparently means something significant to the sugestee, and I'm almost tempted to ask :D
ch maybe someone has a sock or toe fetish or really likes the brand
so far I have 3 io6's....all starting with the same 3 letters
I've bogged down at 115... ick
LOL!! I hadn't thought of that, but could be! The web site says "The way to enlightment is socks" or something like that ...
go chiley
morning all - what is the theme for today?
Hello...from the chat last night, tonites theme is for oe of our fellow babblers who recently lost a child (not quite to term). sorry I have forgotten her name but gold toes is apparently what hurshy refers to her as. everybody was quite taken with the thought.
Atlante, are you saying I should have 1 more of this group, or more?
morning wolvie
"gold toes" wolvie
morning Wolvie
hmmm - that is interesting. ;-0
oh thats very sweet and sad to here hello and thank you lynxxx
iodid
all 4 start with the same 3 letters - there are 3 6s and 1 5 in the group :)
Thanks, lynxxx -- that would explain it. It was Toe Sock Monkey and (my mind is slipping, can't remember his screen name), but yes, that tragic event happened awhile back.
Ah! found the 5 - "Who got it from Zeus? I* ***!"
capone
yay amanda!
yay amanda!
morning wolvie

faerie- high card + half of 'bye-bye'
faeriekae - nail polish remover ingredient - there is 3/4 words running around that theme
faerie i just googled belk and it seems like its a version of our myers store, faerie it sounds like were i would be, we found a chair that is a massage seat and it vibrates in the seat, my friend didn't realise this and she said she has never been embarrased by a chair before, so we call it the embaressment chair.
thanks abe! you can make that an adjective too for a 6
faerie - I just hope you are still around when I start on the 41 p words and am wanting to cuss in the log
thanks amanda!
oh, good morning (afternoon) everyone!
Hey one of my a boxes is grey
Hi abe!
thanks music for counting the p words now thats going to p me off knowning there are that many
Hi Musicmom! long time no 'see'!
hey abe
oh yeah - LOTS of p's
Dont' I know it abe. Girls go back to school one week from today!
Hi Herinfern
Then I can start pestering you all again more regularly
hi abe!
so how long have the kids been at home music?
already? wow i can't believe the summer is almost over! Hey Wolvie!
They got out of school on June 2.
Now that Hannah is school aged as well we have had double the running to do.
My mom told me they started school on Aug 1. Aug 1st in Mississippi - can you imagine?!?!
I don't know how people do it with their kids in everything.
We limit the girls to one sport a year, and they are both in Girl Scouts. Sarah is in band.
thats about as long as we had. finished in november went back start of feb
YIKES Amanda! Not fun!
August 1st! it is too hot to go to school in August, for kids and adults
phantom word - pesto
I just hope they've gotten better air-conditioning than when I was in school there!
phantom word-anecdote
ha! hi,eva!
hi Wolvie!
amanda whats aircon? we never had it
faerie do you work today?
Hi Eva!
hi eva
No doubt amanda. When I started teaching we didn't have air conditioning at all. STarting in the middle of August in Ohio was too hot.
hi everyone who said hi!
brb
You didn't live in Mississippi, herin!
hi eva
lhey, MM
173 and the going is getting sluggish. Almost time to give it up for the morning and come back at night.
we used to go back in october and it was still freezing and we had to wear summer dresses and we had to wear winter dresses just when it was warm
no amanda i live in melbourne australia
ohhhhh faerie yoooo hooooo
oh - I was assuming Britain, herin. Sorry. Then you know about heat too
nope yes i do know about hot, melbourn is having hot weather again, which reminds me is rollin in aus yet?
ACK there are two p in this grid. That makes a total of 49 p words!
Isn't it winter down there?
yep music it does? Yes amanda it is but its been dry again and its looking like stage 2 plus water restrictions
ummm.... wassat mean?
can someone please tell me how to 'refresh'
flosey it should be the button marked refreash
(now would seem a good time to say goodnite) 'goodnight all'
good night lynxxx
hi, is the system acting weird or is it my conmputer?
its' the system emusing. I think i'm going to go away and come back later.
with firefox it looks like 2 arrows in a circle, night lynxx, yes emusing and amanda, stage one water restrictions not to bad stage 4 really bad and we are stage 2 perminatly with it getting stricter soon as we have 47% in our damns
thanks, music, i think i will do the same.
yah johnny deep on tv
that doesn't sound like fun, herin. Yeah, Johnny's finally gonna tie the knot - DAMN!
yep but he already has kids and has been with her for ever\ so its really just a bit of paper in my book
I know, I know... still....
morining everyone
morning annie
flosey, all the way on top hit F5
Hi Annie!
hi annie. johnny depp is getting married?
Yeah, tragic isn't it?
**pauses, wipes tear from cheek**. it sure is amanda! although it's probably a nice thing for his to be wife and kids
nda, fan since 21 jump street, i was allowed to stay up late to watch it i was about 10 when it started and it was late on tv. I saw a girls bag with Mrs Depp on there it was cool
hi abe! i am up there in years but if johnny asked me I'd say Yes. He should be married. He has a family.
*humongous sigh* - I suppose, but it would be a nicer thing if it were ME!
thanks lady and annie, I just went out and came back in but will now know for future use
agreed Annie. though i must admit that i had a slight crush on peter deluise from 21 jump street
amanda, I wish it was you but it is not to be. *very large sigh lfor amanda*
I had a crush on Robert De Niro closer to my age ane
mornin babblers!
had, not any more
Hi evan!
hi evanadine
dont know what happened
Most of my contemporary crushes are married. Although I'm not sure about Kiefer... *goes to imdb*
and, we're back!
or not... can somebody contact DrG? I don't know how
what is going on with the system? s oo oo oo s l o w . . . b e b a c k l a t e r ;)
there is a link at the very bottom of the page Amanda- for 'questions or comments'
someone please talk to the dr god before i cuss more at the screen
and right when we were talking about celebrity crushes :(
ok *types very gingerly* - have sent a message (two or three crashes ago). Used the time to find out that Kiefer is married, but the divorce papers are filed
um i had to send a message via iron sudoko as it wouldn't accept it from here. had enough time to ogel at johnny and orlando
ooooh, orlando....
wow. bad vibes at the site - is it back up to stay?
wouldn't hold my breath on that one, Wolvie
this is total crap i have got 31 words in 2 hours because of the down time it just took me 12 min to load up
amen, fern
Think I'm going to go to the list, otherwise I'll never get finished
hi everyone.. it might be better, if this continues, to work offline, keeping a list to enter at a time when the site is behaving itself... ugh
tjat
that's what i've been doing aloy, it alleviates some frustration
thanks aloyisius i think im going to throw it in and go to bed as im getting very ped off
Hi Aloy
hi amanda!
hi to you, too abe..
hi Aloy!
my word list is gone. i refresh and it's still done
Actually, I know Kiefer. He is married and he has 2 sons.
back agai, hope i stay
abe, try going out again and coming back in
that happened to me too abe - refresh again
Good Morning all. What's happening with the site today? Can't seem to do anything!
NOOOOOO godthaab! All my dreams are shattering today! IMDB says he's married to Kelly Wynn but they (he, she?) have filed for divorce
ok, i'll brb..
it is veryslow, hi judy and i was thrown off and couldnt get back on
hi CJ... I'm a little fearful of entering in the chat box, but I dunno whats up.. have not been on long.
I think we should get a free day on the rankings. There is no way I'm going to finish 298 words adding one an hour.
amanda, who is shattering your dreams? oh dear!
<G>
I agree, mm!
i agree musicmom
Yes, he was married to Kelly, but I did not know that he filed for divorce from her. She is a ery nice lady.
I am going to go po6/21 trying to play today:-)
Dunno who did the filing - maybe it was her
LOL mm - I think I'm going to go do some errands and such and come back later - bye all
hi babblers...annie
hi everyon
hi abe
hi chj... ruff day today on the site..
Hi Chj
slow?
we keep getting kicked off/ losing words lists, et
and frequent interruptions
what on earth is happening here today?
if only we knew....
tape
sorry
I know there have been problems, but I'm wondering if everyone is experiencing very slow word adding even when the site is up
I know there have been problems, but I'm wondering if everyone is experiencing very slow word adding even when the site is up
yes loading is very slow as well.
yes loading is very slow as well.
I'm back again. I was thrown off quite a while ago.
I guess I've become kinda spoiled. Everything worked so well until the last couple of days.
How do you fix a broken jack-o-lantern?
good thing there is a "last word added" feature, or I would go completely bonkers, forgetting where I am in the verrrrry sloooow process of entering words..
took me a long time to get logged om today. Now it keeps stopping and starting. Perhaps there are too many babble addicts out there!!

morning all

hi everyone...are yo now ablt ot enter words?
hi everyone...are you now able to enter words?
I'm afraid this is no fun at all, is it?
I just typed in all of my ca words and it hasn't taken any of them yet. Frustrating!!!
I just logged on. sometimes it's slow to acknowledge my entries, but i entered "pose", and got the red bar stating "pose" didn't exist in the puzzle!!!!!???
this is not good
I think I've entered ten words and nothing is showing in the word list. We'll never finish today! *sigh*
this is not good
Hi folks - I guess everyone else is having problems today too
I've e mailed Dr G about the problems on the site today.
Ive gotten 91 words in, but theres about a 5 min backup for me...
Good morning -- are things a little slow today? -- had trouble logging in
worse than slow, cybernan.. :-(
Is DrG on vacation? He's gonna have loads of mail when he finally looks!
slow is being generous
ooh, i think it's better now
Perfect grid for a slow day . . .
holding my breath as I furiously type...
Oooooo. It seems to be working much better. *keeps fingers crossed*
I just refreshed and seem to be going faster too Judy *said under breath so computer can't hear me*
Hi Hursh, Torgone!
everyone having problems with this program today?
Good morning .. or whatever ..
Yep, you're not alone flosey
good morning torgone
gm torgone.
argh, now i don't know which words that i've put in have gone and which haven't
Had the same problem Hurshy. Bummer!
tks becca, hope it's cleared now
hursy, just go through and reenter everything! That is what I did!
there it goes again !!!
but klaural, i can't remember everything i've put, i typed so fast
how do we contact Dr. God, since this is persisting!!!
Oh, I think I spoke too loud - I'm going slow again
it's not like i can't muddle through... but it's disheartening
is this thing on?
Yea! It's finally back!
Only just!!
finally!
That's the longest down time in ages
Gremlins in the grid today!
lol.. i think everyone's afraid to chat for fear that they will be interrupted again.. i know i am typing furiously! Hi FMitch: my daughter is back home, with a bad cold.. but she is fine otherwise. (-:
Hi Aloy and so glad to hear your daughter has made it home salfely.
me too, FMitch.. ugh, 28 ca's and I have 27... back to the search.
I was thinking the same thing, Aloy. Get those words in before we crash again!
Im not playing today so I will leave you in peace to catch up with the mamoth word count :)
oh FMitch.. too much of the "w" today?
lol too much word and too many words, won't do one this size but iwll hang about the chat log for a while
Has the site been down this afternoon, I have been trying for ages to get in to see you. Glad I am not playing today or it would have been very frustrating
fireworks!
well, bit by bit, you could whittle it away.. wow Roc, how did you do it? congrats!!!
Congrats Roc and Hi ExWren
Yay Roc! How'd you manage that? It's been quite the journey today, trying to get in between the crashes, Wren
did most of it in the first hour after the flip, left me with 45 left for today
ahh.. I worked a bit at the flip (before my eyes crossed).. still have 23 to go
anyone need clues?
whyncha rattle off the 8s???
Hi amanda
Hi Mitch!
teed
oops -- sorry
Finally got back on! Whew! What a Babble day this has been!

hi again, Abe.
Hi Judy and Mom. Hello again Aloyisius!
oh the st8 - made more stable
great clues Roc. ty
I'm getting nervous... seems to be slow again for entries..aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh
Babble is a trial today.
isnt it just! is it behaving better now? I just had to leave earlier!
whew... had some incoming email.. maybe that's what held entries up.. hope so
Nothing like a slow site with a 298 word grid!
how 'bout the pe's between the nuts and the rind?
Looks like we're back in business...
Hi Sprite!
they're all a bunch of chemical-sounding words
you will find an enzyme there, amanda..
.. and something that sounds like what you use to make jelly gel
with its pl too
Hey amanda :)
I was afraid of that - the only one I know isn't there...and I'm not much of a jelly maker
if you've ever heard of the diarrhea medicine, kaope-------
good one, Roc
grid's acting up again -- back later
Are we at pe5/14 now?
they all start with those same first 4 letters
Let's hope so, nan... wasn't easy to get back just now :(
hi Sprite! what are you doing here this time of day? Never heard how that week at summer school went...
Gottem! Thanks all - not sure, Torgone, it's still a bit slow
*sputter, choke, yawn* afternoon babblers
{{{Stid}}}
hello evanadine
oh.. i thought torgone was "nuts" until i realized there was another pe5/14.
Hi folks, was this program down for a while?
hi all! :-)
Sure was, flosey.
it was for me
I had trouble getting logged in just now.
hi stidmama
ok, thanks
hi stid, sprite, evan and anyone else joining the babble fray today..
ah, still then - better take advantage while I can
Evan, same idea on the icon.
hello Aloyisius! I always smile when I see your icon...
Hey stidmama :)
not joining in today, im afraid... ive actually been busy at work!
hi aloyisius
I'm past cashew, filbert, brazil and am now at pe5/14 ..
it was down for a good two hurs for me, but it is still acting up, wont take words readily
yes, about that for me too inge
Anyone got a clue to the as word that isn't a movement (as in step as--- ?
well, its a good day to abstain if you must..
hi newcomers -- lots of problems with the grid acting up today. Think I'll leave it for awhile and do my second most favourite thing -- shopping!
wow evanadine! is it a blue moon again? LOL
As + something to write with
hi Nan, have fun shopping...
its a tree that quakes, hydra
it's a tree, hydra, or a place to ski
Oh yes! Many thanks.
must be stid! hehe
only 98 to go. I will make it, if the system doesnt break down again.
Lady of Shallot - Willows whiten, as---- quiver. My fave poem.
go inge, go!
hi everyone! : )
Hi, TO.
You will, inge. *looks sternly at the grid: don't go down again, you!*
So I have 124 words so far... mostly on my own. Should I hit the list now or try for halfway?
hi TO!
Hey Temple!
Hi TO and allthe others, I am going back to my corner to concentrate
halfway stid, halfway!!
well, if Sprite's "I mean it" face doesn't work to fix the grid, nothing will!
okay, trying for halfway. Diving back into the grid and going incommunicado until I get there. see you-all later!
one pe left - 5/12 right after the code. My monkeys are as frustrated as the rest of us
back at work so i can't linger...grid was down during lunchtime - what rotten timing!
Gotta leave the office for a while. Down to 132. See everybody when I get back!
bye judy!
pe - think male organ but change the vowel.
thanks for your email Sprite - was going to answer but you're here to talk to! If my parents give me any peace over the next few days, I'm going to try and finish my current painting and then do some sketches and stuff for you :)
Think pasta, amanda
bye bye Ciocia Judy
=O
amanda, that same pe was in a recent grid; delicately, i will tell you that it looks like a pl spelling of the male organ (blush)... i really must look that one up
Oops! it doesn't mean pasta but is to do with male anatomy!
Then I hope you will find some Pe5 this week, Ata, LOL! I will be off for the week, back on Friday next.
oh wow, it is the plural
Ah! Thank you both - was going from the wrong p
so do I! I've decided that my house can never be clean enoughor tidy enough to satisfy my mother so I'm just not bothering to worry this time round!
Torgone, Just wanted you to know I am not babbling today, well I am really but over the work to be done. Just so you know, I won't be begging you for clues, babble is much too large for me today......maybe tomorrow, can you stand it one day without me????
That's great, a true sign of growing up, Ata :)
not sure I want to grow up LOL
"When I grow up I wanna be a kid"
too right :)
My heart will go on, Nancy ..
Hey Ata, your icon, it does look a lot like one of your drawings!
..I hope ..
Ok, see you tomorrow then???
very first st? 6/21
St + to do + vowel, amanda
I await the morrow ...
I wish! ooo I'd like to have Anakin hanging around as a model!
thanks Sprite!
You sure know just what to say....mister poet.
Ata, it looks like that beautiful drawing of The Dark Side. Really!
well, it's not halfway, but I did get all the G words by myself, so am heading to the list. back soon
Aw crud . . .*blushes*
The Lure of the Dark Side... if I remember correctly, that is.
So has Nancy read the song on your profile today tor? *widcked grin*
ooo nice pic! http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/38 070676/ and I am having such trouble getting that d**n pic printed because its a picture of Anakin. Am trying to find a local printer that won't care overly much about copyright laws to print off a few copies!
Yes, I have, such an outpouring of romance....whew....makes my heart flutter.
ok..what is the qu please?
LOL! makes my story last night seem tame, you two! ;-) *heads back to enter words into list...*
okay - is this back up and safe now? ;-)
rae -- one qu is the beginning of something like a muddy pit that ends qu**mire
thank you!
LOL Ata, I get some pic of a computer wallpaper from that link!
the other is like an earthqu***, but change the last consonant for another
NEw pic. new pic. not nice pic *sigh*
Wolvie: back up yes. Safe... well... that's still to be decided!
ahhh - it was something else this morning, took me 2 hours to enter 75 words. NOT fun. ;-)
well hopefully nice too!
Another face for windows, Ata?
ahh, FIREWORKS at last ! anyone need a clue before I head for the aspirin bottle?
WTG Aloyisius!
congrat Aloyisis!
ooo - sprite - I've just had someone email me and ask me to do a piece of work for him based on Phedre and Joscelin's marques. Could be interesting!
grats aloy
only thing, Joscelin didnt' HAVE a marque
Yeah! You're in business there, Ata! I just saw that other tattoo coming along on your site, great too!
Errrr... Joscelin's marque? Does he get one too???
I mean Alcuin
I mean Alcuin LOL
I mean Alcuin LOL just got Joscelin firmly on my mind at the moment!
aarrggghhhh! SLOW AGAIN?
aarrggghhhh! SLOW AGAIN?
stupid site!
LOL... conversations are so very interesting when the site is acting up! Well, Joscelin is hard to forget indeed :)
exactly *grins* I'm working on a pic of him at the moment as well ...
*bats eyes nicely and ask: can I see it when it is done, Ata? Pretty please?*
FIREWORKS!!!! Hate to finish and run, but I'm meeting a friend and running late
amanda, well done! Against all O4 today ;)
...as usual
the running late, I mean
congrats, Amanda!
bye amanda, and bye to all you persistent babblers.. good luck; I hope the site behaves !
You're obviously worth waiting for then, amanda :)
It does behave, Aloy. Badly!
bye aloyisius
hi everyone
hi abe
that's a nice way of putting it, Sprite! Really am off now - I'll keep my fingers crossed for the rest of you that the site continues it's good behavior
so true today, sprite.. pox upon it.. (waves a wand).. banishes the boogeyman... bye abe.. I be gone!
BTW, hi, everyone :)
hi abe!
of course Sprite!
hi klaurel
hi sprite, hi wolvie.
hey klaurel
Looking forward to it, Ata! Really interested if your image of him resembles mine in any way!
have to admit, this site being down this morning let me get a lot of OTHER things done! :)
New song .. heh ..
As long as they were things you like doing, lol.
LOL Tor!
me too. i got a TON of work done at work
probably not! I think Jacqueline Carey's characters must be highly individualistic
sprite, I was getting ready for my son's cub scout pack's popcorn sale! :)
this grid looks fun! how it is?
Run away Kris!!!
*Krys
hi Kris, hi torgone
Oh, I wouldn't be surprised if I would recognise your Joscelin, Ata ;) klaurel: sounds, hm... interesting :)
Krys: the grid is okay. The site is baaaaaad!
That's what I meant ..
Down to 14 and all Ts and Ss... I am going to hit the list!
kc? so you like Jacqueline Carey's books too? Anyone else here that does?
QED
hi all - major undertaking on a bumpy site! Tonight could be interesting!
hi snowy! : )
Hi TO -good to see you!
sprite - the problem is that I created all these spreadsheets last year and now I have to remember how they all work! :)
Oh dear, klaurel, that's a challenge! Good luck remembering indeed!
hi to, hi snowy
Hi snowy :)
hi wolvie
posea
oops!
any help with the 1st ca 4/5? The only one out of the CAs I haven't gotten!
afternoon all
Hi Charm
hi charm
hi Charm
"You've already entered Ta4, Te6 and all those others you keep entering, stupid. Try something new!" You know things are bad when game sites start yelling at you, don't you think?
sprite - and then trying to motivate a bunch fo 6-10 year olds to sell popcorn! :) Not to mention, some insanity got me to volunteer to run the popcorn for the darn district.
Hi, Charm!
Oh Torgone, I am absolutely bowled over. What a delicious, wonderful surprise. Actually, my name is really Nancy and I do laugh a lot. Thank you Torgone, I am really honored and flattered and I think I'm in love.......
Hi, Mom, abe, snowy. seems to be quite the crowd right now.
hey, klaurel
we are trying make up for lost time from earlier.
agreed, mom
klaurel: like the thing you can wear, other last vowel. Da C4 al fine, in music.
big grid, but 'normal' letters and no 'r'!
phantom word -episode
sprite - the CA 4/5 right before the thing you walk with?
hi charm( as she finally looks up from grid)..
Hey, Wolvie!
That is almost the same, klaurel, only with another consonant.
yeah - but look at all those P's, charm. ;-)
but no dreaded un's or re's, although there's the potential for de's....
okay, I am brain dead. Still can't figure it out. Will come back to it later
and all of the ca's... lol
There are no De's in that sense, Charm! But try Di's, LOL
klaurel = could it be the golfing assistant?
ok, i'm off - i don't think i have the patience to tackle a big grid if the site is wonky. i'll check in and see if we get a nice sweet <100 word grid later in the week,
not there yet, sprite!
bye all! *poof*
bye Krys
klaurel: I will Ca4 your name, change last consonant into vowel.
got that one. :) its the one between Casanova and that thing you walk with when you have a limp
bye Krys
<3 <3 <3 <3
Bye Krys!
bye kris
danse
sorry
forgot to go back to the puzzle
thanks, sprite.
danse macabre. such a lovely phrase
And such nice music too
Fireworks at last! Any clues I can help with?
yay, sprite!
congrats sprite!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
congrats - and yeah - the two ca 7/36's. :-)
I wouldn't mind a couple of those 8s, if you're in an expansive mood....
thanks, Sprite
congratulations Sprite
congrats to Sprite!
YAY Sprite!
I'm back. Woohoo Sprite!
<3 <3 <3 <3
Wolvie, the only ca 7/36 I have is - think of a small ca 4/6 (like Superman wears)
thanks, Judy
welcome
ah - thanks judy!
First 8 builds on the very first word, Ac5/12. Past tense.
Ciocia just gave one Ca7, the plural is an 8. If you change the last 3 letters of the 7 into a small network for the home computer, you have the other, and plural is another 8.
thanks sprite!
loverly, sprite....
Co8/60: a woman who makes teasing sexual or romantic overtures; a flirt (Not Nancy of course!) ;)
im back, hope i dont get kicked off again, waaaaah
YAY sprite!
Yeahhhhhh Sprite! ty ty ty
I feel your pain Annie. lol
hi annie - it's been good this afernoon
sad commentary on my mindset, sprite, that co8 was one of my 1st words!
hey, Annie....
yay, sprite!!!!!
why does my cat think watercolour paints must be tasty?
LOL Charm! Well, no shame in that! We could do with more love and less war, right?
Atalante, any fishy byproducts in watercolors????
Ata, your cat is just curious enough to try!
La8/50: milked ;)
I think there must be, Charm!
she seems to want the burnt sienna most
ata, she has good taste, its a beautiful color
burnt sienna, burnt cream, creme brulee --> thus my mind.
it is! I loooove it
creme brlee!!!!!
Pe7/36: what the tiny green veggie must wear if he goes out in the cold. Plural is the 8. Actually it is a sailor's heavy woolen double-breasted jacket.
*brulee
mmmm creme brulee!
ohhh what a cute clue Sprite!
creme brulee, creme caramel, flan.
:) daisy!

hi lynxxx
Hi ya lynxxx
You're almost done then, lynxxx, hi :)

Hi, lynxxxx
*still searching for the calming 8* i am as slow as the site today, lol! : D
Ata - may have to investigate a recipe, then (I go to www.epicurious.com for such advice).
Hi, TO = st***y as she goes....
temple, when a boat is rocking and it stops it is st*****
Temple: "The strong silent man St8 her when she almost tripped..."

el 6/21 is the plural of el 5/12 above it cjf
ok, Ata - I found an easy recipe and will try it this week - caramel, bananas and whipped cream - it sounds like it should be part of a naughty evening....
chj
Jaime: start with "to do", insert a vowel, and add a vowel for the 5. Then add consonant for the 6. Make into a verb for the 7. Make past tense for the 8.
yummy, my birthday is nov. 1.....(hint, Hint)
cj
If Charms makes the pie, I will crash the party!
annie, your birthday is nov. 1st? so is mine!
its a really easy thing to make. base, bananas, condensed milk caramel and cream!

Most yummie things in life aren't that hard at all :)
*throws tuna at chj*
I could just eat the condensed milk toffee bit all day! *blush*
Will report back on the pie, or invite the chatlog over for reviews....
abe, double celebration!!!!
Are you suggesting that you haven't, Ata?
awesome, thanks sprite

oooh....annie. i can not imagine the heartwrenching pain to lose a child that you are all ready to love
thanks Jaime
yes, it was hard but you get through it with time
i think it's in japan where they have a cemetery of sorts to honour unborn children, whether they were aborted or lost
one of our local hospitals has a garden for remembering the lost children
my son was a full term and he had a proper ceremony and burial

my loss was less than 2 months, but it was IVF and we had tried for more than 5 years at the time.
can anyone please give me a clue for the 2nd io 6/21 please?
so sorry to hear all the losses - i too had a miscarriage, but only about 8 weeks along (it was my first pregnancy)
Greetings, all! I'm getting a late start & it's a biggie today!
ah, klaurel, very sorry. many miracles today, but IVF is such an iffy experience for many I know.
Hi, Jera
i clued all the io's within the last 1/2 hour
Hi Jera!
yeah, the good thing was that after surgery and I lost a tube, I got pregnant naturally! :) Go Fig!
miracles do happen then klaurel!
yes, they do and I have an almost 10 year old boy and an almost 3 year old girl
Now, that is a story I know personally, klaurel. We tried via md's, for a long time, then gave up. Just as we were thinking of going back to try again - there he was, our little brazil nut in an ultrasound.
charm - yep! when the doctors tell us you have less than 5% chance and they kept so trying to save my reproductive parts. GUess they shoulda just yanked one side! :)
well...have to run now to get ready for my son's ball game. 145 left.

Oh, you're all doing great. I doubt I'll break the 150 mark today.
yw Charm. Still have 70 to go.
aarrggg, these PEs are going to kill me
i about fell over when I saw how many there were!

I'm trying to remember the words I put in this morning and lost when the connection went down...
Well I guess I can spend some wait time chatting to all my dear babbler friends. At the rate I've been allowed to enter words today I might finish by this by the same time tomorrow

at this rate, I can add a word every 15 minutes. seems like anyway
hi hi helen
dang - but i mean it's really horrible, not just plain slowish - oh okay wolvie - that's what i'm talkin about!
kris - it is a beautyful foot with perfect nails and one has a golden toering
OH MY GOD! I finished the PEs! :) now, I have 33 more
*picturing other icon* aww...it's beautiful
wow - a real accomplishment given today's troubles - congrats!
I've been having the same trouble for days. Sometimes it crashes then. I don't think I'll be able to complete it because of the time lag.
this lag makes monkeying kinda pointless - i think i'll come back in a bit
see you in a while helen
fit1- this is the first time in a long time i've experienced this kind of lag here - yesterday was just fine
the SA 5/12?
the SA 5/12?
hmmm Helen. I really have been having this problem for the past week. Can't figger it out
i tried another icon, kris, didn't work either...sorry i meant beautiful....had a beer with my boss already
beer with the boss...must be a good day at work I'd say :)
If the boss is buying ..
kristinc - are you having a good golden toes day?
it's the island, kris...
yes the boss is bying it...
rebdickers?
got to go...see you tomorrow
fit1 - if it's only with this site - then i would ask drg for suggestions :) he's usually very helpful, although today, i'm just guessing here, but today he may be a little busy
yes?
yes helen...it's been a nice day bye ww!
good night folks... hope the connection improves... :)
bye ww!
bye sherb, take care!

Bye ww & sherb

I had the last 4 already, but had missed the sea and the first couple 8's
umm...kristin? why are we doing gold toes?
no feather...everyone warned me so I"m workin' and chattin'

ac5/12 - high card + brittish goodbye
help witht di 5/14 either before or after the electronic device?
ac5 higher than a king + ta*** of honey
ummm, chj, I think the asterisks are supposed to go on the other letters, LOL
di5/14 di + expire
yes they are
ac 6/21 = high card + not nine or eleven
oops, that's wrong, switch that for a te 6
lol, my brain!
di + *** and donts
ac 6 = high card + not short, drop the last letter
di + road after c street
ca7 is feline + hooked claw minus the last letter
that is the one!
thanks nrkii!
te6 is te5 pl
old fashioned di...
te roman 2 + poor grade above failing

Meaningless protest of absence of Dane from the dictionary...

Building your vocabulary by Babbling will stand you in good *****
ooh found them!
was going from wrong A and in wrong direction
.. and help you comport yourself with po5/12, ta4/5, and el4/4
Douglas, you have an extra toe!
I'm over 20% complete! Woo-hoo!
I was wondering when someone was going to notice that!
thank you curtis, for so kindly trying to help -- I didn't mean to holler, just wanted to find them on my own because they were the big ones
But I think you mean to say, "Douglas, your icon has a foot with an extra toe!" My feet are the standard model...
oh no douglas, that's a photo of your foot, I'm sure of it
i understand perfectly
whats 2morrows theme.
It's a great conversation starter!
evening all, could someone point me in the direction of either ca 8?
ooh, after missing the di 5, I am happy to have found the ca 5 that is similar
ah...douglas has an extra toe :)
(not looking at aknitter clues... not looking...)
capel*
nrkii i am clueless !!!
nrkii do u need them as well
i have returned ! any progress on the lag?
I remember reading a book as a child, that showed a picture of a child with six fingers on each hand, and six toes on each foot.
aknitter, one is what superman wears + ***d of the free, home of the brave + plural
oggy, I need one set
but I"m still hunting
huh - no, seems as bad as before, or does it?
we wont clue until u have it first.
A small edible marine fish (Mallotus villosus) of northern Atlantic and Pacific waters, related to and resembling the smelt.
ooh, the other is a little bitty version of what superman wears
Are things running a little more smoothly now?
ty for the ca's
clue please for that ca7/32 that immediately follows the ca4 felines?
thanks oggy! much appreciated!
cybernan, it seems to be better now.
nan - maybe you can get an answer out of this binch, i just asked that - maybe they're pretending the lag doesn't exist :)
iron briefs
*bunch*
iron briefs .. sound rather uncomfortable
helen, nan, it's better than it was
And as long as we're on the subject of extra fingers, there is a Bible reference I feel I must share with you...
but still not "normal"
ohhh, so you CAN see me!
lol - hiya nrkii & all!
sorry helen
first st6/21?
In still another battle, which took place at Gath, there was a huge man with six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot--twenty-four in all. He also was descended from Rapha. - II Samuel 21:20
were the 'iron breis' a clue for that elusive ca7/32 that follows the felines?
6 to go helen, scurrying to finish before another babble meltdown
no you're not oggy! besides aren't you still grounded from last night? for suggesting 300? yes, i think that was you - actually i don't blame you all for being all business since it's taking so long to get anythign accepted :)
go nrkii go!
59 to go here
st6/21 -- sounds like when you put stuff on top of each other in a tall pile, you have st***** it. instead of the ck use a beverage, and then add a vowel.
I'm halfway to halfway - woohoo!
di 5/6 combo clue??
i am the culprit for suggesting 300 words today, but WHAT about 2morrow.
One word is those nasty things in Invasion of the Body Snatchers!
oggy - sounds like you have the beginning of a good rap there!
that's if there is such a thing as a good rap, hmmmm
2 to go...
i dont like the small grids.
thanks ch1212
go nrkii, go nrkii!
op 7? (for some reason, no response yet for a di5/6 combo clue or that ca7/32 following felines.)
done!
phew!
yay nrkii ! hi everyone!
Hooray for nrkii!
hiya debb!
nrkii, congrats!!
ca7 is feline + hooked claw minus the last letter.
WTG NRKII !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ch1212, I just got the ca7... feline singular + short for bye or thanks + not high
wtg nrkii
yay nrkii
and there is another ca that is one T short of that
congrats nrkii!
hooray nrkii!!!!
thanks, nrkii -- got it, and now have all my c's...
there is no DI 5/6 combo
CONGRATS nrkii!!
the OP 7 you are prob looking for is the most op 4/5
you're joking ... I have it from BJ's list. Error?
but it could be the past tense of op 6
bless you nrkii -- the op was exactly that!
there are di 5 and di 6
but none that are same root, except ...
oh, I jsut assumed a relationship ... silly me.
the only one that IS the same root is a di 6 followed by a di 5
okay then... Guess I'm looking for a clue for the di5/14 that follows past tense of losing weight :)
okay, that is di + poem
thank you!
im off to bed see u all 2morrow. nite nite.
bye oggy
'night Mrs. Oggy
good nite oggy
goodnight oggy
nite oggy sweet dreams
night oggy
okay, must go take care of pieces of the rest of my life...
bye all!
bye nrkii
I'd rather think than ******
bye nrkii -- thanks again
And I'd rather teach than ******
Good night, oggy
bye nrkii...enjoy!
bye nrkii
I'm over 30%...woot!

Sheryl, en + tie your shoe****
Hi, all -- this grid is killing me
Oh Judi - that happened to me earlier. How frustrating.

Hi Judi
Greetings and salutations kristinc
hi kristin...hi all
hi cathy
ugh...tough grid this is today
nan, 5 ga's
frustrated i am . . .
why frustrated jen...slow grid?
yes, it's just taking forever . . . i have a stunted attention span :)
I have 143 words left. Fell like I've barely made a dent.
hang in there folks!
every word i put it, it says i've already entered it! i have 144 judy...
I mean "feel" like I haven't made a dent. Geesh. Can I buy a vowel?
*judi*...sorry
phantom word - postdate
ty phen
The more I read your comments about today's grid, I am glad I didn't start this morning. The site went down for nearly 2 hours this afternoon.
I give up trying to go listless today -- back when I have my list filled in!
Hold your breath and cross your fingers, ExWren. It could happen again. Site very testy today.
Hold your breath and cross your fingers, ExWren. It could happen again. Site very testy today.
I think it just did
lol
There's that curse of the Judies again. NOT my fault.
Okay, feeling a little more cheerful . . . FINALLY got the pe's out of the way :)
Anyway, I only looked in to say goodnight, I don't have to beat my brains out trying to finish, 'cos I didn't start!
night ExWren!
Goodnight, ExWren (you big chicken).
back again, 36 to go
This grid could definitely make you go po 6/21
hi,mrpresident
hello all!
night, exwren, and hi mrp
night, wren
lol, judi
hi Annie & Jen!
Hail to your chieflyness, Mrpresident.
Hello Judi LOL!
'night all, happy babbling, you only have 5+ hours left!
eek, don't remind me!
I can't co4 with all the C's!! I just don't know why my brain doesn't register C words!
goodnight exwren
Amen, MrP. I'm seeing i's e's and o's until my eyeballs drop out onto the keyboard.
c words are evil
myself, I don't have a single io word, and I can't see them . . .
I am positive these C words are not english!! Everytime I get a word, I can't believe it has a meaning!
Co8/60, MrP... flirty wench.
it is the stupid QU that is throwing me today! LOL
the qu 4 is the first part of a muddy place, or qu**mire
the other qu is the last part of the eq 6/27, a math term
thanks Jen!
Good clues, Jen.
i hope you actually wanted clues for those . . . :)
yw :)
. . .and ty Judi
I need clues for the i's. I only have id4/5 and id6/21.
hi all...I'm just hoping to get half of the words
io + blind **** with a stranger
I'm in the same boat, Judi -- all the rest are io words, and I don't have a single one
io + past tense of to do; add a vowel
thats all i have!
TY abe!!
io + blind da**
ca 7/8 combo after little cloaks?
i heart annie and abe
aw, shuck, thanks jen!
io+princess ** +children should be **en and not heard

id + consume food + vowel
i hit enter 3 times, nothing was moving, so Jen i really mean
oh dear
lol, yw, yw, yw :)
lol annie...how DO you do that??? ;)
Lol, Annie! A bit compulsive with that enter key, aren't you?
i hit enter without typing anything
i have taped my hands to the chair......
I have my fireworks... at last! Finding the words hasn't been the difficulty today but getting them onto the site has. I hope Dr_God's a good doctor, 'cos the server sure as hell needs medical attention!
annie...you win the prize: most entries in the log :) (no worries...seems to happen to many)
WTG, Jac!!
Congrats, Jacula -- have you time to give some ca clues?
hooray Jacula and hello!
yay jacula
Praise Jeebus! I's gots all the i's.
congrats, Jacula and thanks for the prize, kristin
sorry what was thta princess vlue?
jeebus . . . lol . . . are you quoting the Simpsons?
yay jac
evenin babblers!
I can spare 10 mins before bed, cybernan. What ca's do you need?
hi evan
ca 7 & 8 following little cloaks
hey evanadine
Annie!! I had a dream that I did that same thing last night!!!
No, Jen. Just... babbling.
any ca 7/32
Mr. P. i have to get my hands off the enter key
help
oh poor Annie!! *gets out the nail gun*
*Throws meds to Annie*. Somebody call Dr. Phil! This is an emergency!
another one . . . io + do, past tense + plural
and the singular of that --- YEA, all the io words! This calls for chocolate!
Dr. Phil? Judi, what do you think of him, do you like the show?
abe and annie get big chunks of chocolate
Hi everyone! I am back from a wonderful day at the beach! Had a heck of a time playing babble this am. Kept getting connection error notice.
mmmm. t hanks jen!
*gobble, gobble*
it's still slow at times, peri
Hello People!
hi, peri! it's been like that all day
hi chic!
took the meds, it worked
Hi Annie! meds, schmeds; it's original!
Hi chic!
Hey Mrp, good morning!
I can only take small doses of Dr. Phil, Annie. Most of the time I think he's just a big phoney and an Oprah syncophant. Other times, he's rather hypnotic and I can't drag myself away. He does get points for not b.s.ing the drunks in denial and the teenage prostitues.
Jacula -- ca 7 & 8 following little cloaks, any ca 7/32, please
chic, i love your toes...
hi peri, chic...others
bye........ every word i've entered in the la** twnety minutes have been duplicates. see you tomorrow
thank goodness, they are not actually my toes...
cybernan- ca + number + vowel. (ca 6) latin and regular plurals for the 7
Hey Kristinc, good to see you back...
by, arlene
thanks chic...ditto the love of your icon (although sorta creepy)
another phantom = elope
Judi, I agree with you but the man does make sense. I wonder if the people on his show get paid. I would never humilate myself like that and they cry on cue. I wonder....
ca's after 'little cloaks' - they sound a bit like Samuri swords but are not spelled the same. ca6/21 is a closely linked series of writing or commentaries. (ca + a brand of pantie pads [not 'Depends'!]) ca7/32 is the Latin plural and ca7/32 after it is the normal plural.
Thanks, Abe
Thanks, Jacula -- not sure about the samui swords! -- got the rest
Yeah, Annie. If he has any credibility, he has a few hours on the couch with his guests before the shoe. Even so, even the best shrink can't make a complete diagnosis in less than an hour (let alone in front of cameras).
Last ca7/32 is a cross between a steer and an American Buffalo.
Fireworks at last!
I meant "show" not shoe. Was looking at cybernan's foot. Freudian.
okay, I heart Jacula, too -- ty, only two more ca words to go
hooray pappou!
thanks, kristin
. . . the 2nd set of ca 7/36, 8/50
co6/30 and co8/60 please
WTG, Pappou
boy, I didn't think I was going to finish especially since the words were moving soooooooo slow
and if you noticed, when the people he is going to help and are filmed at home they look like sh** and on the show, perfect hair, makeup and esp. the shoes. well good for him he's making a fortune. Enough about him. LOL
ty Jacula -- have to work on the swords and the buffalo!
pappou...did the lightning go away too?
that's it...i'm done. 125 left, but just not into it tonite. may be back if my mood changes.
peri, think of the lawn game and take out the r
Peri - the co's you want are variant spellings of the Frenh for a flirty lady. It's been in the grid before. Sounds a bit like a lawn game played with mallets & hoops (think Alice in Wonderland).
well done anyhow cathy!
*French
peri, the co 8 is a shameless flirt. for the 6, take away the last two letters
kristin, yes, finally, we lost power for a few minutes
oh -- I had the buffalo one -- it's the 7/32 after the felines that I'm missing
nan. ca 6.21 = feline and French way of saying hello
I gotta sign off. Too sleep deprived to continue. Waterbed heater broke the other night. Have been sleeping on a regular bed. Sleeping only in the figurative sense.
tks...if not later, then tomorrow everyone! bye bye
thanks Jen34
oh...but b4 i go....kristen? do u like the toe ring?
Anxiously and sleepily awaiting the arrival of my Tempu-Pedi mattress to replace ye olde waterbed.
yw :)
Tempur-Pedic. Jeebus! I can't type tonight.
I do Cathy...thanks for reminding me to look. How very special.
Jen - 2nd set of ca7 & 8 words (think little cloaks) sound like Juliet's surname. (Romeo was a Montague and Juliet a Ca*****.)
judi, I hear ya, happened to me, never had another night of restful sleep since my waterbed died
sweet dreams. Judi
night, judo
judi
lol...good. bye bye
I must bid you all goodnight now. Happy Babbling and I hope the server's seen the Doctor by tomorrow.
Quitting with 126 words left. Avenge me!
ty for the clue, Jac, but I'm looking for the set right after those two
G'nite, Jacula and thanks
bye, jacula
goodnight Jacula!
Hello all, can I get a clue for ac 7 pls
Does anyone know what a samuri sword is called?
unless i'm thinking of the wrong set . . . I'll look again . . night jac!!
found them!!! Jac's probably gone, but ty anyway!
ac 7 -- synthetic fibre
la7/32 and la850 please
i always remember that ac 7, b/c I missed that word at the state spelling bee
Jen - did you get the second ca 7/8 combo?
peri, think milk-providing
Jen - you're looking for the set before those two! Extend your ca4/6 (what batman & Dracula wear) with the first 3 letters of an l4/4 (country road) word.
thnx cybernan
I finally figured them out, nan and jac -- TY so much!
I'm gone now. 'Night, 'night.x
night, jac!!
A clue for the second set, please?
nite, jac
thanks Jen34
pe7/36 and pe8/50 please
nan, superman wears a ca** + a salad is made of ***tuce, then plural
sorry, not the best clue, but you get the drift
I have that one, Jen -- it's the two following those that I'm looking for
do you mean the 7/8 combo right before those?
Is there an error in bj's list? -- are there two ca 7/8 combos following each other?
there are two sets of 7/8 . . . i clued the second set
peri, Sprite gave this clue for pe 7 and8...a little green veggie that is wearing a co** to keep warm and plural
Oh -- maybe they are before -- I just have the one set
Does nyone have the last di4/6 and the second di6/24 please?
the first set is the same first four letters + sailors look for dry ***d
thanks Annie and to sprite in absentia :)
. . . and plural
thanks anniebrook!
st8/50 please
hetty, past tense of "to expire"
di 4.6 a prank
does anyone have the first two te 5/12's? thanks
thanks, Jen -- got it, finally!\
hetty, pat tense of what you do to lose weight
hetty, the di 6 is past tense of a plan to lose weight
the last ca 7/32, please?
yw, nan -- i know, those were icky!
yw
I'm getting awfully tired of feline words!
ca 7/32, feline (lol) + British goodbye + not high, minus the last letter
Thanks, Annie and Jen. Thse di*** will be the deah of me!
anyone have the st8/50
cyber: ca+hot beaverage 2 letters+ na
if cat had remained the theme for today it might have been a bit infuriating...
peri, when she almost fell, he reached out and st****** her
hi libarebel
i know what you mean, hetty *passes out more chocolate to stressed babblers*
have that -- is there a ca 7/32 following felines?
peri, the root of that word "st**** as she goes"
hi, annie!
he could not have reached out and stabbed her...
yw hetty
Jen, can't figure out your clues :(
nan, there are two 7/32 before the felines, could it be one of those?
*grabs a chocolate*
*comes in with lemonade for those who are braving the grid*
lol, rae
thanks kristinc!
i had to do it
um. . . let's see . . when you go st**** with someone, you are exclusively dating them . . . but make it past tense
raelite, i think the grid is getting to you
no -- bj's list has ca 4/5, 7/32, 6/24 as the last 3 ca words
Jen. now I get it, thanks so much
nan, i clued you the last 7/32 . . . hmmm
yw, peri :)
rae, have some chocolate and a margarita
ooooo, margaritas!!!!
Well the 8 letter words are done, as well some other, but still have 186 to go.
oh I need that...bad day at the office
or should I say orifice...
go, peri, go
lol
maybe there's an error in bj's list
doubt that I will finish today but thanks for the encouragement, Jen34
how could there be 41 p words anyway???
be back in a while
have a hungry man to feed -- back later
hello everyone
the other 7/32's are : feline + second vowel + something really gross is ***ty, and the same word, but change the last letter to a vowel
hi kalea!

cads
they're impossible to clue, too
well that was a fine hello..sorry
lol, good clue krista . . . why didn't I think of that?
I have them all then, Jen -- must be an error in the list!
LOL. Yep, pretty precise on that clue, wasn't I?
dang Krista......give one i don't have
i'm glad you don't have to keep looking, nan :)
I had the cursor in the chat box when the phone rang, then went back to doing the grid, forgetting where the cursor was..right when u were discussing ca words.
it was very well-timed, krista :)
sorry kalea ;)
why is it that when I try to work by ca4/5 feels the need to actually sit atop the keyboard? (apologies in advance for inadvertant feline entries)
well.......i suppose this was given already, but i can't find the last ca7/32
kalea feline + British goodbye + not high (minus last letter)
ta 6/21, anyone?
thanks Jen...............lol, i had the one with one less t, but never thought of that one

pe + bird's ***t
woohoo BamBam!
thanks bambam!
one extra clue for my MP, cheers!
Doris still looked awful, but she opened her eyes a bit and smoothed out the blanket with her hands. "Hello again, Father," she croaked -- a little less like a toad this time.
thanks bam! :-)
judy...grrrreat icon-thanks!
Gilly took the bowl of broth and sat down, holding it so Doris could sip a little. The doctor opened the curtains a bit and turned to Paul.
last pe6/24 anyone?
"So -- you are getting used to being home, I think. Already fetching and carrying."
Paul looked astonished, then laughed. "Never could fool you, Esmeralda!"
pe.......past tense of the 4/5 before it
Gilly snorted and Doris giggled.
Fran, your dogs love being pe****
definitely need a fish for that one, thanks lbd and kalea!!
The broth soon vanished, and cups of tea were passed around. Gilly, Paul and the doctor watched Doris carefully for any sign of difficulty, but she seemed to be steadily improving.
first st6/21 anyone?
st + perform in a play + 2nd vowel
<*)))<< just for you Fran! :)
gee thanks lbd...:-)
lol lbd...cute fish!
ce 5/12, not to stop?
Doris finally put her cup down with a satisfied sigh. "I feel so much better. May I get up now?"

thanks kalea!
ce...........angry and in*****d
thanks fran

ta6/21 anyone?

Gilly moved aside for the doctor to examine her daughter, and Paul gathered the cups and lunch dishes. Gilly handed him a few cloths and towels on his way out, "Watch that third step, dear!" she teased.
ta + flower part
hey ya keis!!!
fran, like the silky material but different 3rd letter
minus last letter for the 6
thanks lbd and kalea!
di6/27 please
past tense of do + perform on stage
Paul entered the kitchen as John was taking the cold wash water outside. Anna soon had fresh water ready and the rest of the dishes dried and put away.
Paul told them how Doris looked and that she had a good appetite.
thanks kalea
that's it for me, folks - 50 left - sure wish the grid had been functional earlier today. Ah well. Have fun, and see you all tomorrow!
"Yes, and she may come downstairs after she has a nap," continued the voice of the doctor from the doorway.
night wolvie
bye wolvie!
bye wolvie
well done wolvie! &*&*&*FIREWORKS&*&*&* for you anyhow!
sweet zzz's wolvie
She was pulling on her gloves while Gilly held her bag. John and Paul headed out to hitch up the horse again, while Anna brought out a pie and a side of bacon from the pantry.
ta7/32 anyone?
The women stood on the porch, getting instructions from Esmeralda, who was much more pleasant looking when she was not focused on a patient.
ta + flower part
duh, thanks kalea!!
scotch or masking t*** + not short minus a letter
lol.......yw

"And be sure that someone is awake tonight while Doris sleeps, so that if she has trouble you can give her the nettle tincture right away."
abe, set that as***
first te5/12 anyone?
anyone have the other pe7/36's? I have the one that is the ending of stomach medicine...
fran, set a fish as 5 for me please. thanks!
Paul drove up to the gate and got out to help the doctor in.
kalea, did you figure out what you are missing?
yw abe!
shmooz, first one is green veg + over****
"And send Paul immediately if she takes a turn for the worse -- not John, the poor boy has enough to do with those three youngsters of his!" She winked at Paul, "Besides, it will be good for folks to see me with this stranger. Gives me an air of mystery."
ah, have that one too, sorry..
second one, just change the last consonant of the one you have already
fireworks
good night, Wolvie...
yay abe!!!
wtg Abe!
hooray abe...well done!
hmmmmmm mysterious....
fran, te+3rd letter +british way to say bye
The air was bright as Paul and the doctor drove off toward town, and Cathy watched through the window.
thanks all... you all gave great clues. will be here for few to offer assistance
last pe7/36 is plural of the pe6/24, first three letters of the others + number after nine.
thanks lbd!!
and the mystery would be????
ty fran
"Mother, the doctor just left with Paul. I'll just take this recipe over to Gilly."
what the doctor said!
*whispers so as not to interrupt the story* any clues for the ca 6/21 before the different spelling of a woman's name (ca 4/5)
yw shmooz
about paul!
Ava looked at her eldest daughter sternly, "And get the latest news, of course. You know your father and I are just as curious as you are!"
cat + mr. gore + vowel
gotcha
Cathy kissed her mother, picked up the recipe card and darted out the back door.
(I was behind in the story but caught up now!)
bless you Abe79!
judy: feline + healing desert plant minus the last vowel
no prob :)
John met Cathy at the gate and bowed deeply, "Good afternoon, dear Auntie! May I help you ascend the steps?"
last te6/21 anyone?
Cathy gave him a solid knock on his head and ignored his proffered hand. "I am not so venerable yet, young man!"
number + high card
number after 9 + super pilot
John laughed and rubbed his head. "Mother and Anna should be in the kitchen again, Auntie. I'll be in the garden with the kids if you need me."
thanks abe and lbd, fireworks!
Cathy grinned and quickly ascended the steps.
YAY Fran!
yay fran@
hooray fran!
yay Fran!
pyros fran!!!
boy that was rough one, thanks for the help!!
Sure enough, Gilly and Anna were just putting a large pot on to boil and starting to pull together biscuits when Cathy entered.

Sure enough, Gilly and Anna were just putting a large pot on to boil and starting to pull together biscuits when Cathy entered.

yay for fran! judy how are you?
thanks lbd -- sorry for the double post, folks!
Woohoo Fran. 16 TO. How about you?

Gilly set the recipe on the small desk in the corner and rolled up her sleeves too.

ty dawg!
they had marc on the doc channel the other night
yw TO
a beautiful assortment of gold toes here...well done everyone!
hi helen! haven't seen you for a while!
Gilly soon brought her up to date, and not long after, Paul came through the door from the yard. "The doctor says Doris will need to stick to simple foods for a few days until all the swelling is down," he announced, putting an armful of wood in the box.
i'm headed off to bed. good night all
nite, aabe

hi leigh!
lbd...no worries. After today it's a wonder any of us are even here with any icon at all!
the gold toe thing relates to someones child that passed on, this i was told last night
hiya leigh
In no time at all, Gilly had a pot of vegetable stew bubbling merrily on the stove, Anna's biscuits were in the small oven and Cathy's famous "mystery center" pies were in the large oven.
or hair or brain power! lol
hey to - i've been coming on around flip time lately :)

Cathy wiped her hands on her apron and hung it up again, "I'll go tell Mother and Father the good news. We'll be over for supper soon."
ty dawger
Paul glanced upstairs, "Do you think Doris is ready to get up yet?"
yw Nan
pe........chest muscle + take a bite minus the t
*i think Paul is getting into being home and a daddy! :-)*
Gilly smiled and swept up the stairs, returning to the kitchen with a much improved Doris just as John and the children entered with their finds.
does anyone else's butt hurt from sitting? LOL1
lol TO
lol t-owl!!!
Anna handed Sarah to Meg, and checked Gray and Olivia's hands. Frowning, she sent them and their father outside to wash up. Andy laughed, but soon joined them when Paul pointed out that he had carrots growing out of his fingernails.
rofl cuz my butt is numb!
TO, my butt was surgically attached to my sofa ages ago so I could babble incessantly...
hah stid! me too
and it's such abeautiful night...taking 5 for a wlk
enjoy, TO
my eyes are crossing and it's getting time to head to bed. nighty night everyone
oops! sorry stid! *redfaced*
night, lbd
sweet zzz's lb
Soon, the family was gathered around the kitchen table -- a little crowded, but happy. Nan sat next to Doris, occasionally putting her hand out as if to reassure herself that her sister was there.
nite lbdawger...sleep well
why sorry, TO? enjoy your walk and we'll see you later!
good night lbd!
Stid--consider casters in stead of sofa and you can babble wherever you want!
anyone have the last se6?
good idea, mom23 *files idea in "must remember" space in head*
se........roman poet
Kalea, I'm still monkeying with the pe 7/36. Thx for the clue
Paul looked around and said, "Well I suppose you are all anxious to hear a bit more of my journeys?"
If "space in head" is anything like mine, it's so safe it'll never be thought of again!
ok, back from important emailing - hope I haven't missed a lot of the story but can always catch up at babanon -- sorry, stid!
it's okay Jill -- pretty tame stuff tonight so far!
*ooh, good - going to hear paul's journeys*
the second pe7/36 please
I also need the pe 6/24 & y/36 before the rind of the lemon. Help!!
The room grew very silent, except, of course, for Sarah, who was happily playing with a bit of biscuit crumbled in front of her.
pe6......chest muscle plus less than nines
singular and plural
***I will omit the quotes in Paul's bit for a while. That way quotes in his story won't be confusing****
the one before that one kalea
thank you thank you Kalea. Still can't get the first one. What am I doing wrong????
chest muscle + potato minus the r
the first pe7 is the same as the one i just gave, but change the next to last letter to a plural letter
i'm not up on my Roman poets....any other clue for the last se6?
Soon after I landed across the sea, I took a wagon train of sailors and other "hands" toward the mountains in the distance, to see if we could trade for more supplies. The supplies in the harbor town were so costly that most of our trade goods would have be gone before we reached our true destination.
se + up to my ***k + first vowel
oh, thank you!
None of us really spoke the language of those parts, but some of the sailors could pull together enough from other tongues they knew to make our needs understood.
yw
It was very good to have my feet on solid ground again, and I could tell my faithful donkey felt the same. My cart was small, but sturdy, and carried tents and supplies for us.
*whispers* fireworks!
The first day away from the harbor, we passed through lush farm country. The grains grew tall and were supple in the wind that swept in from the ocean.
YAY TO! (go take a walk)
*whispers* yayyyyyyyyy TO
WELL DONE TEMPLE OWL (can't whisper after a grid like this)
*shouts* YAY TO!!!!
night everyoone! see you tomorrow!
lol kristin

We could see fat cattle grazing contentedly, and sheep in a few pastures with their young.

te 5/12, please? -- missing both and the first 6
it was a callenge today, with the server problems this morning...
Good evening everyone and big WTG to anybody that finished today
te5/12 has a double vowel Inside...
I gather that most of us had issues with the site
te5/12....lie de****or + first vowel
hi mamawa!
i still don't get that pe7/36 after the nuts
it was most unhappy this morning...
Hi MaMaWA - it's stid's storytime
best thoughts and prayers Kristinc to you
sorry I disappeared, Tom got swarmed by wasps... he'll be okay. A couple of the wasps won't.
pab, got the 7/36 before the 6/24?
YAY angelsong!
I love stids story just wanted to say hi
well thank you mamawa...very kind of you.
oh my, stid
hi MaMaWA
hey stid sorry for the wasps
yes kalea
Did they bite Tom?
pe 7/36: beginning of chest muscle + like (meaning same) + second vowel
where was I? fat sheep and cattle, I think.
oh stid...will he really be okay>
then just change the last t to a plural consonant
thanks cybernan and kalea
that's right, stid
We stayed the first night in a small village, and entertained the locals with songs from our many homes.
Yes, kristin, we are not allergic to them. He'll be fine.
good clue, nan.............
good. tell him we're sorry anyhow...that's never fun
thanks for the clue kalea
yw nan
do you have some AfterBite?
te 5/6 combo, please?
The second day, the terrain grew steadily more rocky, and soon there were goats among the sheep, and the cattle were more rugged looking. There were more trees here, too.
Tom says thanks for your concern. :-)
I've also heard plastering such bites with muc is a good idea!!!
oh dear!
Mama got attacked too, methinks!!
te + double vowel + fourth letter
oh no!!!! I am SO SORRY!!!!
wow......looks that way
ummm. There were more trees?
lol
She needed peace and quiet to work with.
I said "oh dear" but it didn't get posted
okay stid...we get it...we won't chat anymore during storytime :)
And while I could recognize some of the fruits, there were many I did not know -- some that looked like nut trees that had berries on them, and some that looked like giant flowers with vegetable pods hanging from their leaves.
***fireworks*** *collapses onto keyboard*
LOL everyone, okay... we'll finish this chapter yet!
*snickers @ Kristin*
sorry, kalea -- can't make sense of it -- te 5/12 and 6/21
yayyyyyyyyyyyy Judy
way to go Judy!
That night, we stayed in a large clearing in the forest next to a creek.
YAY Judy!
thx Kalea for allllll your help. I was really dense on the pe 7/36!
thx Kristin
Judy! get off the keyboard before you break babble too!
thx Stid
Congrats, Judy.
*slowly lifts herself to semi-upright position*
I'll bbl....stupid boyfriend problems.
nan..........te + double 3rd vowel + fourth letter, and plural for the 6
thx Leigh. This was tough today with the problems and the size of the grid.
TO are you out there? How are you doing?
TO left.
thanks kalea -- seem to be blind tonight!
sure glad we didn't need to do mouth to mouth, Judy
The third day when we awoke there was fog. We could see the trail we had come in on, but were not sure of the way we should go to get closer to the mountains.
okay Leigh. thx.
but she did finish judy
me to Kalea
yw nan........that was a weird one, for sure
thx Kristin. Glad to hear she finished. I lost track.
The fog started to lift around midday, but not before we had heard some strange sounds coming from the woods around us.
One sailor swore up and down that he had seen a face at the bottom of a pool in the stream.
Okay. Time for bed. See you Babblers tomorrow. Enjoy the rest of the story.
night Judy
*okay, everybody quiet now???*
Of course, that was the same man who had spent his first night aboard ship making charms against sea serpents for everyone on board.
good night Judy!
sleep well Judy
nite judy
ok -- 4 left all from those pesky c's...
Several who had gone around the edges of the clearing to gather more wood for the noon meal felt they had been watched by the trees as they picked up branches. One man, a young man from a village like ours, said he had seen a tree move away from him into the forest.
Of course, no one else had seen this, so we didn't believe him.
is the 2nd to last ca a 7/32? -- if so, could I have a clue, please?
But whatever the explanations were, the animals were restless and kept shifting about. We had to keep checking their hobbling to be sure they wouldn't get loose.
yes nan..........feline + eagle claw minus last letter
As we ate, the fog lifted and we could see the trail we intended to follow. We quickly hitched up the animals and moved on.
We came upon a series of hills, each a bit higher and more difficult than the last. Periodically, we could see a cairn, or the remains of a cottage, but we passed no others traveling in either direction.
Even birds were scarce in this strange forest.
ce 5/12 -- not "stop"?
We were glad when, just at dusk, we saw a comfortable, good-sized town below us by a river.
stid thanks and good night. will read up tomorrow
We arrived at the gate just as it was closing.
good night inge.
nite, inge
The guards were suspicious of us, but let us in and directed us to a tavern close to the town wall.
goodnight inge
We gratefully put up our horses and donkeys in their stable and ate a hot meal before finding space in the loft of the tavern.
Some of the more experienced travelers among us cautioned everyone to sleep with their heads on their bags and their hands on their knives.
Turned out, this advice was more necessary than we could have suspected.
*** to normal mode***
oh???
leaving us in suspenders?
Paul looked around the table. Doris was nodding gently. Adam and Ava were sitting, each with a great-grandchild on their lap. The children's expressions were intent.
"I think we should stop here -- the next bit is quite complicated," Paul explained.
i love scary stories!!!
The children groaned, but Gilly spoke quickly. "Yes, and Owain and Otto haven't heard any of this yet. We'll invite them to supper tomorrow after the market closes and Father can continue."
For now, Polly will you and Meg help Doris get back to bed?
*groaning*
"Andy, you and Nan can go make sure the animals have water."
*groaning*
"Andy, you and Nan can go make sure the animals have water."
Adam and Ava and Cathy stood up, putting their plates and bowls by the sink on their way out.
sorry nan, was away...........ce5.......rhymes with common sense
Adam looked at Paul, "Whatever else, you tell a good story, son." He winked at him. "We'll see you tomorrow ."
oops........meant common s****

Hi All. I knew I would be too busy today to start when I saw the size of the grid last night at the flip. How was the grid?

Hi Nef - the grid was/is too big !

That's what I thought last night. I was tired then; and this is the first time I've been able to get back here today. It really wouldn't have been worth it for me to even try! :(

We're a little desperate...we need an as5,12? Can anyone help us with a clue?

Thanks GW_thought you'd finished

pe8 is outerwear, I associate with the navy
Nope, I don't have a PE8

It's a jacket, GW--made of petit pois!
sorry who needs what
oops,,,a word. shame on me
we need as5,12
chj, I need a few st's please
whereabouts hetty
Thanks for the Pe8
c6/21 please, the one after the broken bone support
there are 3 in the exact middle of my list:st5/12, st8/50, and st5/10
st5 i rather go bowling in**** of the movies
sbaba --- do you need the ski resort as5/12 (at least I think it is a ski resort -- shows how much I ski huh? ;D)
somehow I'm befuddled by whether the "e" or "a" should follow the "t"
then add anagram of to expire
st5/10 to rob is to st***
OK, got the first and second st5's. Bt the st8?.
that's another 8 found, chj -- thank you :)
Can't think of an 8 letter word meaning to expire
that's an extension of the previous word hetty
past tense
So all I need 8 wise are the two ca8's And may I add that there are entirely too many C and P words in this grid :D
st8 = stabilised
no use the first st5 i gave and add the anagram
Gotcha! What a clever girl!
my phantom word of the day is stance
ca8 ca4/6 + here, *** me do that for you, plural
one left to find, thanks flosey
The second ta5, please?
holy moly, nice clue, flosey
the other is same beginning, ca4/6 + buy ***d before you build house, plural
ta5 a cows udders are its te***
oth ca8's begin like ca4, GW--then add the stick letter --but if you have the 7 's just pluralise
excellent!! I always feel better when I don't finish the grid, if I have at least found all the biggest words and have managed to find a word that begins in each box
the second t5, please?
heh, I'm the same way, grey -- minimally I want a word starting in each live box
of course in this grid I still have three boxes without words associated with them, but I'll live :)
thanks' I had to pull on that one!
are you looking for ta or te hetty
but what I wanted, chj, was the tA 5
wasnt that it hetty?
The cow's udder is spelt with a te
yes
oh you want ta sorry
make it plural, hetty
sorry ta5 a diplomat needs ta** + pl
how about a clue for the os, please?
thanks--couldn't see it as plural
co 6/30 pls? ty
Hetty -- remember the cardinal rule of Babble --- Pluralise EVERYTHING - even if it looks wrong!
O.K., G.W., Hursh is always telling me that but I'm a sloooow learner
If we had a t-shirt store -- I think that would be the top seller :
:)
there are 2 o's that uwse the qu, GW--when a window isn't transparent it's op****
as joan jett sang..i'm slow, i know..but even so..."

id4/5 is a thought
thx again hk!
hmm how to clue those - let me think a sec

yw MG
ok first pe 7/36 is pod vegie & jacket
i have that one - i need the ones in the middle
io 5/14 6/24 6/21
MG - the io's are varying forms that have to do with what is done to salt
io + past tense of done
co 6/30
then add 2nd vowel to that
use different endings, less vowels, etc.
help with pe 7/36's please
2nd pe 7/36 is pe & 2nd const & cross letter first vowel & snake * 2nd vowel
hey MG how close are you on this one
other io 6/24 helen
2nd cons is B
3rd pe same as the one above it but switch the sanke for a cross letter
